UK outfit SpinVox has announced the launch of “Speak-a-Blog”, a voice to text tool that allows users to blog via voice from a mobile phone.
The service works through using SpinVox’s current voice to text technology, and is currently compatible with Blogger, LiveJournal and Vox, although other blogging platforms may be supported by a “generic” option.
The pitch is to bloggers who don’t have easy access to a computer when they are on the move, and who can’t be bothered trying to type a blog entry into a mobile phone (and I know what they mean by that one).
The service is currently only available to UK residents, however the company is taking registrations of interest from non UK users. A free 1 week trial is available, after that plans start at 3 pounds ($5.90 US) for 10 posts.

I love the speak-a-blog blogging tool from SpinVox. I use it to update my blog from my mobile all the time. Makes updating your blog so much more convenient.
